Mayor Mike's Movie Night

Mayor Michael Nutter announced "Movies Under Penn" this week to be shown every other Friday in the hall courtyard. The program debuts July 11 after sundown (around 8:30 p.m.) beginning with The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (cross-dressing finally comes to City Hall).

The other movies are The Italian Job (breaking myriad traffic laws in a Mini Cooper), Unbreakable (weird doings in Wanamaker's and Franklin Field) and Unvincible (Vince Papale and the Eagles).

Besides showing a certain fondness for Mark Wahlberg, what do these selections tell us about Mayor Nutter and the City?
